Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Calgary, Alberta

Meet Charcoal! Hailing from Northern Manitoba, he was built for cold weather, but prefers central heating.

If you've been looking for a roommate who has absolutely no concept of personal space but possesses the manners of a polite Canadian diplomat, look no further. Charcoal has officially retired from his northern roots and is looking to pivot full-time into the luxury lifestyle of a indoor lap cat.

He doesn't just like humans; he is downright obsessed with them. You are his favourite reality TV show, his preferred heat source, and his entire world. Charcoal has a very specific, highly effective communication style. If you are hanging out with him and dare to let your attention drift--say, to your phone, a book, or God forbid, your remote work--he will not yell. He will not bite. Instead, he will slowly, gently extend one single, soft velvet paw and place it on your arm.

Must love cuddles: If you are looking for an independent, aloof feline who ignores you for 23 hours a day... keep scrolling. Charcoal wants to be in your business.
Warm blankets required: He came from the true north, so he appreciates a good duvet setup.
Willingness to be policed by a paw: You must accept that your hands now belong to him.

Ready to let this northern gentleman steal your heart (and 70% of your mattress)? Apply to adopt Charcoal today!

Adoption Fee: $225
Estimated DoB: May 2025
